#0, Geometric Transformations
Posted by Francisco Pereira on Nov-06-00 at 12:01 PM
Hi, my wife is taking a course of mathmatics (she is a teacher), and this course is taken from a long distance. The University has a book on "Geometric Transformations" but there no suficient exercices, and who exist have no solutions.

As you are in the field i'd like to ask if you know any site or any book related because i only find introductions and informatic or programing related with the matter.

The program is:

Transformation introdution
Circunferencias
Transformation in euclidean plan

Thanks in advance,

Francisco Pereira

Dear Francisco:

I can heartily recommend the 3 volume set by I.M. Yaglom "Geometric Transformations" from the Mathematical Association of America. All three are small brochures and are on sale right now.

There's more than enough exercises in those books.

All the best,
Alexander Bogomolny
